Mainly his symtoms are being tired all the time, aches and sores in his body everywhere, a weird tingleing feeling on his right side, almost like his body was going numb. Sometimes he just gets a huge throbbing that can be enough to make him drop to his knees, in tears from the pain. I really need anyones advice on what this could be, what we should do. Doctors say nothings wrong but its quite obious to both of us that somehting is wrong. You guys dont even know how much I care about him , this is important to me and now im acutally scared that he is dying. Hes always tired. He says it started about 2 years ago and he ingored it all this time just putting it off and now its starting to get worse and its taking over his life. He doenst even go to school anymore ( were 16) because he is too tired to do it. I care about him so much and I dont know what to do. Hes gone to doctors in the past and they've said nothing was wrong. Having this probelm that we dont know affects everything he does. It consumes his mind and its all he can think about because he says " I know something is wrong with me, i remember what it was like to live normally" he acutally thinks he is dying. He gave up on alot of things in his life and through his ambitons out the door because he figured he was going to die anyways. He thinks its acutally killing him and its getting worse and worse. If anyone has any advice mainly on what this is from past experiences ect then I would really appreciate ansers, any self diagnoses you might think it is , anything, because im scared. Its getting worse and im scared i might loose him if I dont figure out whats wrong and fast.
Thanks so much
